Some are unpleasant to our ears while others are very pleasant to hear. In a single day you probably hear hundreds of different sounds. All sounds are different. Some may be loud. Some are high; others are low. Some sounds are useful. Without sound we cannot talk or listen to one another. The ringing of the alarm clock wakes people up. The hooting 8 of a car warns people of danger. Some sounds are harmful. When planes fly low over the land, the very loud sounds can damage the houses. Very loud sounds can even make people deaf. We know sound travel about one kilometer in three seconds. In a thunder storm you see the lightning first and then hear the thunder. This is because light travels much faster than sound. Next time you see lightning; count the number of seconds before you hear the thunder. Divide this number of seconds before you hear thunder. Divide this number by 3. This will tell you how many kilometers away the thunder storm is. 这个世界充满了许多有趣的声音。对于我们的耳朵而言， 有些是不舒适的，有些则是悦耳动听的。在一天之内你可能 听到数以百计的不同声音。所有的声音是不同的。有些可能 是响亮 的。有些高的，有些低的。有些声音是有用的。 没有声音，我们彼此不能听说。闹钟铃声唤醒人们。汽车 的啼声警示处于危险状况的人们。 有些声音是有害的。当 飞机在陆地上方低空飞行，巨大的声音可能会损坏房屋。巨 9 大的声 音，甚至可以使人耳聋。 我们知道， 3秒钟里声音传播约1公里。在雷雨天你先 看到闪电，然后再听到雷声。这是 因为光的速度比声音的速度传播得快的多。 下次看到闪电，在听到雷声之前，你计算闪电秒数。均分 听到雷声之前的秒数，即除以3。 这会告诉你多少公里外有雷雨风暴。 P37 (53) Tommy has a little dog.

In most counties, bells were hung around the necks of animals. The bells helped owners to find lost cows or goats. Today, in India, animals still wear bells. Now bells are used less and less. Buzzers, sirens and horns 11 have taken their place.

The sun is far away from the earth. It is ninety-three million miles away from the earth. The sun is a large star. The earth is very small among its planets. Every day the sun sends out a great deal of heat and makes us feel hot. But we receive only a small part of the heat, because the sun is so far away from us and its heat loses more of its energy when it reaches the earth. We also receive a very small part of its light. This is enough for the growth of trees, plants, and humans. On the other hand, much heat and light would be harmful to them. The heat and light from the sun come in just the right quantities for life on the earth. 地球上的生命依赖于太阳。日复一日，我们看到太阳的光 芒，感受它的温暖。太阳距离地球 很遥远。太阳相距地球九千三百万英里。 太阳是一个大星球。地球在行星中是非常小的。每天太阳 散发出巨大的热能，使我们感受了热量。但我们只得到了一 小部分的热能，因为太阳离我们太遥远，当它的能量到达地 28 球时已失去了大部分。我们也获得了它的一小部分光亮。这 对树木生长，植物生长和人类生长已经足够。从另一方面说， 过分的光和热将是对他们有害的。发自太阳的光和热满足了 地球上的生命所需。 P99 (2) The people on earth belong to many different counties. We speak many different languages and have different ideas. But we are all people born on the earth. All of us live and die on this planet. We have never known any other home. Men believed for thousands of years that the earth was the center of everything. They believed the sun and stars moved around us. The old ideas of men should not surprise us. Most of us only believe what we see. Many years passed, and then people knew that ours is only a very small part of a great universe (巨大的宇宙), and the earth is moving around the sun. What do we know about the place of our earth in space? We know that the earth is one of nine planets moving around the sun. We call the family of the sun and its planets the solar system (太阳系). 29 地球上的人们属于不同的国家。我们说多种不同的语言， 有着不同的想法。不过，我们都是在地球上出生的人。我们 大家都在这个星球上生活和死亡。我们从来不知道任何其他 的发源 地。 几千年来，先人们只相信地球是一切事物的中心。他们认 为，太阳和星星围绕着我们转动。 先人们的旧思想不应使 我们感到惊讶。我们大多数人只相信我们所看到的。许多年 过去了，人们逐渐知道了，我们的星球是巨大的宇宙中的非 常小的一部分，地球正在围绕太阳转动。 我们了解了我们 的地球在太空中的位置是什么情况呢, 我们知道，地球是 围绕太阳运动的 九大行星之一。我们称作太阳家族和太阳系行星。 P99 (3) You speak, write a letter, make a telephone. You words carry a message. People communicate (交流、交际) with words. Do you think you can communicate without words? A smile on your face shows you are happy or friendly. Tears in your eyes tell others that you are sad. When you raise your hand in class, the teacher knows you want to say something or ask a question. You shake you head, and people know you 30 are saying ”No”. You nod and people know you are saying “Yes”. Other things can also carry messages. For example, a sign at the bus stop helps you to know which bus to take. A sign on the wall of your school helps you to find the lab. Sign on doors tell you where to go in or out. Have you ever noticed that there are a lot of signs around you and that you get messages from them all the time? People can communicate in many other ways. An artist can use his drawings to tell about beautiful mountains, about the blue sea and many other things. Books are written to tell you about all the wonderful things in the world and also about people and their ideas. Books, magazines, TV and radio and films all help us to communicate with others. They all help us to know what is going on in the world and what other people are thinking about. 你说话，写信，打电话。你的言语传递着信息。人们使用 言语交流。 你认为没有言语可以交流吗,在你脸上的笑容表示你是 31 友好的幸福的。在你眼里的泪水告诉别人你是悲伤的。当你 在课堂上举起手，老师知道你想说什么或提问题。你摇头， 人们知道 你是说“不”。你点头，人们知道你是说“是”。 其他事物也可以传递信息。例如，一块公共汽车站牌帮助 你了解乘坐哪路车。 一块学校墙壁上指示牌帮助你找到实 验室。门上牌子告诉你哪里是入口和出口。你有没有注意到， 在你周 围有很多示意牌，并且你一直从那里获得信息, 人们可以用许多其他方式沟通。一个艺术家可以用他的画 表现秀美的山川，蓝色的大海和其他许多东西。书籍是写出 来告诉你，有关世界上所有美好的事物，也有关人和他们的 想法。 书籍，杂志，电视，广播和电影都有助于我们与他 人沟通。这些都有助于我们了解世界上 正在发生什么事情，了解其他人都在思考什么。 P100 (4) The computer is fast, and never makes a mistake, while people are too slow and full of mistakes sometimes. That is what people often say when they talk about computers. For over a quarter of a century, engineers have been making better computers. Now a computer can do a lot of 32 everyday jobs wonderfully. It is widely used in factories, hospitals and banks. A computer can report, decide and control (控制) in almost every field. Many computer scientists are now thinking of making the computer “think” like a man. With the help of a person, a computer can draw pictures, write music, talk with people, play chess, recognize (辨认) voices, translate (翻译) languages and so on (等等). Perhaps computers will one day really think and feel. Do you think that people will be afraid when they find that the computer is too clever to listen to and serve the people? 计算机速度快，从不犯错， 而人工很慢，有时错误百出。这也就是人们谈论计算机时通 常 所说的。 在过去的四分之一个世纪，工程师们一直在做出更好的计 算机。现在，计算机能够出色地完成大量的日常工作。它广 泛应用于工厂，医院和银行。一台计算机可以 报告 软件系统测试报告下载sgs报告如何下载关于路面塌陷情况报告535n,sgs报告怎么下载竣工报告下载 ，决定和 控制几乎所有领域。许多计算机科学家正在研制电脑像人一 样“思考”。 在人的操控下，计算机可以画画，写音乐，与 人交谈，玩象棋，辨认声音，翻译语言等等。也许有一天计 算机真的会思考，真的有感觉。当人们发现电脑非常聪明地 听取和服务于人的时候，你认为人们会害怕吗, 33 P101 (5) What time is it? There are many ways you can find out the time. You may have a watch. You can look at a clock on the wall. You can listen to the radio or call a number on telephone to get the time. It has not always been easy to know the time. A long time ago people looked at the sun to tell the time. They could tell the time of day by looking at the sun in the sky: morning, noon or afternoon. Around the year1.400, people began to use the hourglass. It was made of glass with some sand in it. It was wide at both ends, but narrow in the middle. The sand ran from one end to the other in one hour. At the end of every day hour people turned the glass over and began again. Hundreds of years later a machine called clock was invented. After that, people made small clocks so that they could carry them in their pockets. Very small clocks were called watches. Then, during Would War I men started wearing their watches. It was easier and faster to tell the time. Now almost everyone wears a watch. 34 现在是什么时间,有很多方法可以得知时间。你可能有一个手表。你可以看看墙上的时钟。 你可以收听电台或拨打电话号码，以获取想要知道的时间。 它并不总是容易的知道时间。很久以前人们观察太阳以确定时间。他们通过观察太阳在天 空中位置来确定一天的时间:早晨，中午或下午。 大约在公元1400年，人们开始使用沙漏。沙漏是由装有一些沙子的玻璃容器组成。容器两端宽大，而中间狭窄。沙子从一端移动到另一端需1个小时。在每个小时结束时人们把玻璃 容器翻过来，又重新开始了。 几百年后被称为时钟的机器发明了。在此之后，人们使用小小的时钟，放在口袋里以便携带。非常小的时钟被称为手表。然后，在第一次世界大战期间男子开始戴手表。这样更简便， 更快速地得知时间。现在，几乎每个人都戴着手表。 P102 (6) Some people have very good memories, and can easily learn quite long poems by hearts. There are other people who can only remember things when they have said them over and over. 35 Charles Dickens, the famous English writer, said that he could walk down any long street in London and then tell you the name of every shop he had passed. Many great men of world have had wonderful memories. A good memory is a great help in learning a language. Everybody learns his own language by remembering what he hears when he is a small child. Some children-like boys and girls who live in foreign countries with their parents-seem to learn two languages almost as easily as one. In schools it is not easy to learn a second language because the pupils have so little time for it, and they are busy with other subjects as well. The human mind is rather like a camera, but it takes photographs not only of what we see but of what we feel, hear, smell and taste. When we take a real photograph with a camera, there is much to do before the photograph is finished and ready to show to our friends. In the some way there is much work to be done before we can make a picture remain forever in the mind. Memory is the diary that we all carry about with us. 36 有些人有非常好的记忆力，能轻松地记住相当长的诗歌。还有些人，只能记住那些他们说 了一遍又一遍的东西。 查尔斯狄更斯，英国著名作家，据说他走过任何一条伦敦大街后就能告诉你他所经过的每 一个商店的名字。许多伟人都具有极好的记忆力。 良好的记忆力在学习语言中是有很大帮助的。每个人从小通过记住所听到的学习母语。有些孩子---比如与父母一起在国外生活的男孩和女孩们---似乎学习两种语言几乎与学习一种语言一样轻松。 在学校里学习第二语言是不容易的，因为学生们只有很少的时间用于学习，并且 他们也同时忙于其他学科。 人类的心灵很像是一个相机，但是它'拍摄照片’不仅有我们所看到的东西，还有我们的感 觉，听觉，嗅觉和味觉。 记忆是伴随着我们一生的日记。 P103 (7) There is nothing more important to life than the sun. Without the sun all living things on the earth would die. The sun is a star. In the sky, there are thousands of stars like the sun. They are as large as the sun and as hot as the 37 sun. At night, you can see many stars, but in the daytime, you can only see star-the sun. The sun is much nearer to us than any other star. That is why it looks the biggest and brightest of all the stars. The distance of the sun from the earth is as much as 150 million kilometers. Most of the stars are thousands of light years away from the earth. Do you know the light year? Nothing in the world travels faster than light. It travels 300,000 kilometers a second. And one light year is the distance that light travels in one year. 对生命而言，没有什么比太阳更重要了。没有太阳，地球 上所有的生命都将消失。 太阳是一颗恒星。在天空中，也 有成千上万的像太阳的恒星。它们如同太阳一样巨大和灼 热。晚上，你可以看到很多星星，但在白天，你只能看到 恒星太阳。 太阳比任何其他恒星离我们近。这就是为什么太阳看起来 是所有恒星中最大的，最明亮的。 从地球到太阳的距离多达150万公里。绝大多数恒星距离 地球数千光年。 你知道光年吗, 世界上再也没有比光速传播得更快了。 38 光每秒传播300，000公里。一光 年是光一年时间传播的距离。 P104 (8) While you are much safer inside than out, lightning can strike you even in the home. Here’s how to protect you indoors: Stay away from windows. Get out of the shower or bath. Don’t touch conductors such as fireplaces and metal pipes. Cherry, was struck by lightning last year while washing her clothes. Lightning entered a window next to the washing machine, struck her right hand, traveled through her body and finally out of her left arm. “It was as though I was holding a bolt in my hands,” remembered Cherry, who was thrown across the room. Stay off the telephone. It isn’t an old wives’ story-many people have been hurt through the telephone lines. It was raining outside while Peter Anderson was on the phone at his house in Florida. “Ban! A bolt hit the building,” he says. “I felt the hair on my arms stand on end, and a 39 lightning hit no through telephone, which was almost blown out of my hand.” Unplug televisions, computer, etc. Don’t just turn them off. It the house is struck, they could be damaged if you keep them plugged in. Try lightning rods if your area is very often hit by lightning. Properly fixed, lightning rods reduced chances of damage to a home and to the people inside it. 虽然你在内部远比外部安全，甚至在屋里雷电仍可以袭击 你。以下是你在室内如何保护的 方法: 远离窗户。离开浴缸或停止淋浴。 请勿触摸诸如壁炉和金属管子。 去年Cherry洗的衣服的时候，她被闪电击中。雷电闪击 了窗口旁边的洗衣机，击到她的右手，穿过她的身体，最后 从她的左臂出来。 “这就像我在手里握着一个螺栓，” Cherry 记忆 犹新 ，她在房间里被扔转过去。 不接电话。 40 这不是一个年老妻子的故事，许多人已被电话线伤害过。 外面下着雨，这时彼得安德森正在位于佛罗里达州的房子打 电话。 “班～一个螺栓击中建筑物，“他说。 “一个闪电击 穿电 话，这几乎是冲开我的手，我感觉手臂上的毛都站直了。 “ 拔掉电视机，电脑等电源。 不要只是将其关闭。房子被雷电击中，如果你让它们插在 电源上，它们可能会损坏。 调试避雷针覆盖区域往往会被闪电击中。 恰当固定避雷针，避雷针减少房子和房子里面的人的受损 机会。 P106 (9) Scientists are trying to make the deserts into good land again. They want to bring water to the deserts, so people can live and grow food. They are learning a lot about the deserts. But more and more of the earth is becoming deserts all the time. Scientists may not be able to changes the deserts in time. Why is more and more land becoming deserts? Scientists think that people make deserts. People are doing bad things to the earth. 41 Some places on the earth don’t get very much rain. But they still don’t become deserts. This is because some green plants are growing there. Small green plants and grass are very important to dry places. Plants don’t let the wind blow the dirt away. When a little bit of rain falls, the plants hold the water. Without plants, the land can become a 篇四:初中英语阅读300篇 The most frightening words in the English language are, “Our computer is down.” You hear it more and more when you are in business. The other day I was at the airport waiting for a ticket to Washington and the girl in the ticket office said, “I’m sorry, I can’t sell you a ticket. Our computer is down.” “If your computer is down, just write me out a ticket.” “I can’t write you out a ticket. The computer is the only one allowed to do so.” I looked down the counter and every passenger was just standing there drinking coffee and staring at the black screen. Then I asked her, “What do you do?” “We give the computer the information about your trip, and it tells us whether you can fly with us or not.” “So when it goes down, you go down with it.” 42 “That’s right, sir.” “How long will the computer be down?” I wanted to know. “I have no idea. Sometimes it’s down for 10 minutes, sometimes for two hours. There is no way we can find out without asking the computer, and since it’s down it won't answer us.” After the girl told me they had no backup(备用的) computers. I said, “Let’s forget the computer. What about your planes? They’re still flying, aren’t they?” “I couldn't tell without asking the computer.” “Maybe I could just go to the gate and ask the pilot the he’s flying to Washington.” I suggested. “I wouldn't know what gate to sent you to. Even if the pilot was going to Washington, he couldn't take you if you didn't have a ticket.” “Is there any other flight to Washington within the next few hours?” “I wouldn't know,” she said, pointing at the dark screen. “Only 'IT’ knows. 'IT’ can tell me.” By this time there were quiet a few people standing in line. The word spread to other travelers that the computer was down. Some people left, some people started to cry and still others 43 kicked luggage. 在英语语言中最可怕的话是:“我们的电脑出故障了。”当你在进行业务时，你听到这话越来越多了。有一天，我在机场候买去华盛顿的机票，售票处里的女孩说，“对不起，我无法给你出票。我们的电脑出故障了。” “如果您的电脑出故障了，我手写一张票吧。” “我无法手写给你。只有电脑是唯一允许这样操作的。” 我低头扫视了柜台，每个乘客只是站在那里喝着咖啡，盯着黑色屏幕。然后我问她:“那你做什么呢,” “我们把你的旅行信息输入电脑，它会告诉我们您是否能飞或不能。” “所以，当电脑出现故障，你和电脑一起停工。” “没错，先生。” “电脑出故障会有多长时间,”我想知道。 “我不知道。有时停10分钟，有时停两个小时。除了问电脑我们没有其他办法知道，因为它出故障也就不会回答我们。” 女孩告诉我他们没有备用的电脑之后。我说:“让我们忘掉电脑。那么你们的飞机怎么样了,它们是不是还在飞行呢,” “不问电脑我无法告诉你。” “也许我只能走向大门，去问飞向华盛顿的飞行员。”我建 44 议。 “我不知道你该进什么大门。即使飞行员要飞华盛顿，如果 你没有机票，他也不能带上你。” “在未来几个小时里，还有没有其他飞往华盛顿的航班,” “我不知道，”她指着黑色屏幕说。“只有'它’知道。 只有'它’能告诉我。” 到这时候还有相当一部份人在排队。电脑出故障这个词传 播到其余旅客。有些人离开，有些人哭了起来，还有一些人 踢行李。 P321 (2) Almost every family buys at least one copy of a newspaper everyday. Some people have as many as two or three different newspapers. But why do people read newspapers? Five hundred years ago, news of important happenings, battles lost and won, kings or rulers overthrown(推翻) or killed took months and even years to travel from one country to another. The news passed by words of mouth. Today we can read in our newspapers of important things that happen in far away countries on the same day. Besides giving news from all over the world, newspapers tell us a lot of other useful information. There are weather reports, radio, television and film guides, book reviews, 45 stories, and of course, advertisements(广告). There are all kinds of advertisements. They pay the newspapers thousands of dollars for the advertising space(广告版面), but it is worth the money because news of what they make in factories goes into almost every home in the country. For those who make newspapers, advertisements are also very important. Money from advertisements makes it possible for them to sell their newspapers at a low price and still make a profit. Newspapers often have information on gardening, cookery and fashion(时装) as well as a small but very popular part on jokes and cartoons. 几乎每个家庭每天至少购买一份报纸。有些人购买多达两 种或三种不同的报纸。人们为什么看报纸, 五百年前，重 大事件，战争输赢，国王或统治者被推翻或杀死的新闻信息 要过上几个月甚至数年才能从一个国家传播到另一个国家。 那时的新闻信息通过口头传播。今天，我们能够在报上看到 同一天里在遥远的国度发生的重要事件。 除了来自世界各地的新闻，报纸还给我们提供了其它很多 有用的信息。有天气预报，广播，电视和电影预告，书评， 故事，当然，还有广告。有各种各样的广告。他们支付给广 告版面数千美元，但这是值得的，因为他们在工厂发生的新 46 闻信息传入几乎每一个在乡间的家庭。对于经营报纸和广告 的那些人也是非常重要的。广告收入使他们有可能以低廉的 价格出售他们的报纸并且仍然能够盈利。 报纸经常有园艺，烹饪和时装方面的信息，也有笑话和漫 画方面的一小块但非常流行的版面。 P322 (3) Many students are injured or killed in different kinds of accidents. Chen haoyu, a teacher at Beijing No. 25 middle School and a self-protection expert, gives young students advice on how to deal with danger: ?If you are robbed Keep clam. If you cannot cry for help or run away, give the robber your money. Try and remember what the robber looked like and tell the police. ?If you are in a traffic accident If you are hurt by a car, take down the registration number, if it is a bicycle, try to contact your parents before you let the rider go. This is in case you don't realize how seriously you are hurt. ?If it is raining hard and there is lightning Don't stay in high places and keep away from trees. 47 ?When there is a fire Gets away as fast as you can. But wet material on your body and try to find an exit. Do not take elevator! ?If someone is drowning If you can’t swim, don't get into the water. Cry out for help. ?Remember that danger is never as far away as you think. Look after yourself at all times! 许多学生在各类事故中受 伤或死亡。 陈浩宇，一位北京第25中学教师和自我保护的专家，给 年轻学生关于如何处理危险的建议: ?如果被抢劫 保持沉默。如果你不能呼叫求助或逃离开，把你的钱给强 盗。设法记住这个强盗长什么样子，报告警察。 ?如果出交通事故 如果你被汽车撞了，记下车牌号，如果是自行车，在你让 骑车人离开之前，设法联系你的父母。这是在你不知道你伤 得有多严重的情况下。 ?如果天下大雨并有雷电 不要停留在高处，远离大树。 ?当发生火灾 48 尽你的可能快速撤离。随身带上湿的东西，并设法找到一 个出口。不要乘电梯～ ?如果有人溺水 如果你不会游泳，不能跳入水中。呼叫求助。 ?请记住此类危险从来不是你想象中的遥远。你自己时时 要当心～ P323 (4) Suppose(假设) a man has a car accident. He is hurt badly and is unconscious(失去知觉的); that is, he can’t think, speak, or hear. His family takes him to the hospital. The doctors tell the family that his brain(大脑) is dead. A machine can make him breathe. Now the patient’s(病人) family must answer some difficult questions. Should they think he is dead? Should they ask the doctors to use the machine to make him breathe? Sometimes machines can make an unconscious person breathe for years. However, if his brain is dead, he will never think, speak, or hear again. Then, should his family ask the doctors not to use the machine and let him die? Someone who is unconscious can’t say he wants to die. Can his family say this for him? Some people think this is a good idea. Some think otherwise(不同地). 49 Many people are hurt when machines keep a person alive. The unconscious person doesn't know this. Machine only make the family and friends hurt longer. 假设一个男子出了车祸。他伤的很重，失去了知觉;也就 是说，他不能思考，不能说话，不能听见。他的家人送他到 医院。医生告诉家人，他的大脑已经死亡。一台机器可以辅 助他呼吸。 现在，病人的家属必须回答一些棘手的问题。他们可以认 为他死了吗,他们可以要求医生使用机器使他呼吸吗,有 时机器可以使昏迷不醒的人呼吸多年。但是，如果他的大脑 已经死亡，他再也不能思考，不能说话，不能听见了。那么， 能允许他的家属要求医生不使用机器，让他死去吗, 昏迷不醒的人无法说出他想死。他的家属能替他说吗,有 些人认为这是一个好主意。另有一些人持不同认识。 当机器维持一个人活着的时候，许多人受到了伤害。昏迷 不醒的人不知道这一点。机器仅能造成他的家人和朋友更长 时间的伤害。 P324 (5) Most people want to work, but it has become more difficult in today’s world to find work for everybody. The economies of the world need to grow by 4% each year just to keep the old number of jobs for people. often this is not 50 possible, and so more people are without work. Some people have no jobs now because new machines can do the work of many people in a shorter time. Also, machines do not ask for more money and longer holidays. In all of the countries of the world machines are taking work from people, not only in factories but also on the farms. One machine can often do the work of forty percent of people. About 75,000 people are moving to the cities a day to look for jobs, but only 70% of them can find jobs. 大多数人想要工作，但在当今世界每个人都找到工作已成 为很大困难。世界经济需要每年增长4,，仅能维持原先的 就业人数。通常这是不可能的，所以好多人没有工作。现今 有些人没有工作，是由于新机器能用较短时间完成许多人的 工作。此外，机器不会要求更多的工资和较长的假期。在世 界上所有国家，机器不仅在工厂，而且在农场正取代人的工 作。一台机器通常能够完成人工作的40,。每天约75,000 人移居到城市找工作，但只有其中70,可以找到工作。 P325 (6) On Thursday morning, more than 100 citizens in Nanjing, the capital of East China’s Jiangsu Province, donated blood at a local station as a result of the local promotion campaign 51 of the country’s blood donation law which took effect late last year. Some 82.3 percent of the blood in the local supply(供应) centre has been donated, compared with last year where a large amount of blood was purchased(购买). As many as 12,000 local people have freely donated their blood so far, ensuring(保证) an abundant supply for use in local hospitals. 周四早上，在中国东部江苏省省会南京，100多名市民在 当地??电视台献血，以作为去年年底生效的国家献血法的本 地宣传活动。与去年同期那里大量购买的血液相比，已有 82.3%捐赠到当地供血中心。到目前为止，多达12,000名当 地市民无偿捐献了自己的鲜血，为当地医院的使用保障了丰 富的供应。 P326 (7) In the past, when people had problems, they went to their families or friends to get advice. Today, it is possible to get advice from radio show, TV programs and telephone hot lines, too. A hot line is a telephone line that offers a direct way of getting in touch with(同??联络) advisers. Most hot lines are completely anonymous(不具名的). Callers do not have to say their names or telephone numbers. Most hot lines are usually free, too. Callers do not have to pay for the advice or the phone calls-even if the calls are long 52 distance(长途). At some hot lines, the advisers are volunteers(志愿者). Other hot lines pay their advisers for their words. Usually the advisers are professionals(专业人 员), with years of education and experience, but sometimes, the advisers have only taken a short class before starting to work on the hot line. All the advisers listen to people and help them settle their problems. 在过去，当人们遇到问题，他们向家人或朋友咨询。今天， 也可以从广播节目，电视节目和电话热线得到咨询。热线是 一条电话线，提供了一个与顾问联络的直接方式。大多数热 线是完全匿名的。呼叫者不必说出他们的名字或电话号码。 大多数热线通常也是免费的。呼叫者不必支付咨询费或电话 费，即使是长途电话费。有些热线的顾问是志愿者。其他热 线给它们的顾问支付报酬。顾问通常是有多年教育和经验的 专业人士，但有时候，顾问在开始热线电话工作以前只经过 短期培训。所有的顾问倾听来电，帮助他们解决问题。 P328 (8) Here are four messages on Alan Marshall’s answerphone.

Its old meaning is used to express a temperature that is a little bit cold. As the world has changed, the word has had many different meanings. “Cool” can be used to express feelings of interest in almost anything. When you see a famous car in the street, maybe you will say, “It’s cool.” You may think, “He’s so cool,” when you see your favourite footballer. We all maximize(扩大) the meaning of “cool”. You can use it instead of many words such as teacher asked her students to write about the waterfall they had visited. On one student’s paper was just the one sentence, “It’s so cool.” Maybe he thought it was the best way to show that he saw and felt. 56 But the story also shows a scarcity(不足) of words. Without “cool”, some people have no words to show the same meaning. So it is quite important to keep some credibility(可信性). Can you think of many other words that make your life as colorful as the word “cool”?

Newspapers often have information on gardening, cookery and fashion(时装) as well as a small but very popular part on jokes and cartoons. 几乎每个家庭每天至少购买一份报纸。有些人购买多达两 种或三种不同的报纸。人们为什么看报纸, 五百年前，重 大事件，战争输赢，国王或统治者被推翻或杀死的新闻信息 要过上几个月甚至数年才能从一个国家传播到另一个国家。 那时的新闻信息通过口头传播。今天，我们能够在报上看到 同一天里在遥远的国度发生的重要事件。 除了来自世界各地的新闻，报纸还给我们提供了其它很多 有用的信息。有天气预报，广播，电视和电影预告，书评， 故事，当然，还有广告。有各种各样的广告。他们支付给广 告版面数千美元，但这是值得的，因为他们在工厂发生的新 61 闻信息传入几乎每一个在乡间的家庭。对于经营报纸和广告 的那些人也是非常重要的。广告收入使他们有可能以低廉的 价格出售他们的报纸并且仍然能够盈利。 报纸经常有园艺，烹饪和时装方面的信息，也有笑话和漫 画方面的一小块但非常流行的版面。 P322 (3) Many students are injured or killed in different kinds of accidents. Chen haoyu, a teacher at Beijing No. 25 middle School and a self-protection expert, gives young students advice on how to deal with danger: ?If you are robbed Keep clam. If you cannot cry for help or run away, give the robber your money. Try and remember what the robber looked like and tell the police. ?If you are in a traffic accident If you are hurt by a car, take down the registration number, if it is a bicycle, try to contact your parents before you let the rider go. This is in case you don't realize how seriously you are hurt. ?If it is raining hard and there is lightning Don't stay in high places and keep away from trees. 62 ?When there is a fire Gets away as fast as you can. But wet material on your body and try to find an exit. Do not take elevator! ?If someone is drowning If you can’t swim, don't get into the water. Cry out for help. ?Remember that danger is never as far away as you think. Look after yourself at all times! 许多学生在各类事故中受 伤或死亡。 陈浩宇，一位北京第25中学教师和自我保护的专家，给 年轻学生关于如何处理危险的建议: ?如果被抢劫 保持沉默。如果你不能呼叫求助或逃离开，把你的钱给强 盗。设法记住这个强盗长什么样子，报告警察。 ?如果出交通事故 如果你被汽车撞了，记下车牌号，如果是自行车，在你让 骑车人离开之前，设法联系你的父母。这是在你不知道你伤 得有多严重的情况下。 ?如果天下大雨并有雷电 不要停留在高处，远离大树。 ?当发生火灾 63 尽你的可能快速撤离。随身带上湿的东西，并设法找到一 个出口。不要乘电梯～ ?如果有人溺水 如果你不会游泳，不能跳入水中。呼叫求助。 ?请记住此类危险从来不是你想象中的遥远。你自己时时 要当心～ P323 (4) Suppose(假设) a man has a car accident. He is hurt badly and is unconscious(失去知觉的); that is, he can’t think, speak, or hear. His family takes him to the hospital. The doctors tell the family that his brain(大脑) is dead. A machine can make him breathe. Now the patient’s(病人) family must answer some difficult questions. Should they think he is dead? Should they ask the doctors to use the machine to make him breathe? Sometimes machines can make an unconscious person breathe for years. However, if his brain is dead, he will never think, speak, or hear again. Then, should his family ask the doctors not to use the machine and let him die? Someone who is unconscious can’t say he wants to die. Can his family say this for him? Some people think this is a good idea. Some think otherwise(不同地). 64 Many people are hurt when machines keep a person alive. The unconscious person doesn't know this. Machine only make the family and friends hurt longer. 假设一个男子出了车祸。他伤的很重，失去了知觉;也就 是说，他不能思考，不能说话，不能听见。他的家人送他到 医院。医生告诉家人，他的大脑已经死亡。一台机器可以辅 助他呼吸。 现在，病人的家属必须回答一些棘手的问题。他们可以认 为他死了吗,他们可以要求医生使用机器使他呼吸吗,有 时机器可以使昏迷不醒的人呼吸多年。但是，如果他的大脑 已经死亡，他再也不能思考，不能说话，不能听见了。那么， 能允许他的家属要求医生不使用机器，让他死去吗, 昏迷不醒的人无法说出他想死。他的家属能替他说吗,有 些人认为这是一个好主意。另有一些人持不同认识。 当机器维持一个人活着的时候，许多人受到了伤害。昏迷 不醒的人不知道这一点。机器仅能造成他的家人和朋友更长 时间的伤害。 P324 (5) Most people want to work, but it has become more difficult in today’s world to find work for everybody. The economies of the world need to grow by 4% each year just to keep the old number of jobs for people. often this is not 65 possible, and so more people are without work. Some people have no jobs now because new machines can do the work of many people in a shorter time. Also, machines do not ask for more money and longer holidays. In all of the countries of the world machines are taking work from people, not only in factories but also on the farms. One machine can often do the work of forty percent of people. About 75,000 people are moving to the cities a day to look for jobs, but only 70% of them can find jobs. 大多数人想要工作，但在当今世界每个人都找到工作已成 为很大困难。世界经济需要每年增长4,，仅能维持原先的 就业人数。通常这是不可能的，所以好多人没有工作。现今 有些人没有工作，是由于新机器能用较短时间完成许多人的 工作。此外，机器不会要求更多的工资和较长的假期。在世 界上所有国家，机器不仅在工厂，而且在农场正取代人的工 作。一台机器通常能够完成人工作的40,。每天约75,000 人移居到城市找工作，但只有其中70,可以找到工作。 P325 (6) On Thursday morning, more than 100 citizens in Nanjing, the capital of East China’s Jiangsu Province, donated blood at a local station as a result of the local promotion campaign 66 of the country’s blood donation law which took effect late last year. Some 82.3 percent of the blood in the local supply(供应) centre has been donated, compared with last year where a large amount of blood was purchased(购买). As many as 12,000 local people have freely donated their blood so far, ensuring(保证) an abundant supply for use in local hospitals. 周四早上，在中国东部江苏省省会南京，100多名市民在 当地??电视台献血，以作为去年年底生效的国家献血法的本 地宣传活动。与去年同期那里大量购买的血液相比，已有 82.3%捐赠到当地供血中心。到目前为止，多达12,000名当 地市民无偿捐献了自己的鲜血，为当地医院的使用保障了丰 富的供应。 P326 (7) In the past, when people had problems, they went to their families or friends to get advice. Today, it is possible to get advice from radio show, TV programs and telephone hot lines, too. A hot line is a telephone line that offers a direct way of getting in touch with(同??联络) advisers. Most hot lines are completely anonymous(不具名的). Callers do not have to say their names or telephone numbers. Most hot lines are usually free, too. Callers do not have to pay for the advice or the phone calls-even if the calls are long 67 distance(长途). At some hot lines, the advisers are volunteers(志愿者). Other hot lines pay their advisers for their words. Usually the advisers are professionals(专业人 员), with years of education and experience, but sometimes, the advisers have only taken a short class before starting to work on the hot line. All the advisers listen to people and help them settle their problems. 在过去，当人们遇到问题，他们向家人或朋友咨询。今天， 也可以从广播节目，电视节目和电话热线得到咨询。热线是 一条电话线，提供了一个与顾问联络的直接方式。大多数热 线是完全匿名的。呼叫者不必说出他们的名字或电话号码。 大多数热线通常也是免费的。呼叫者不必支付咨询费或电话 费，即使是长途电话费。有些热线的顾问是志愿者。其他热 线给它们的顾问支付报酬。顾问通常是有多年教育和经验的 专业人士，但有时候，顾问在开始热线电话工作以前只经过 短期培训。所有的顾问倾听来电，帮助他们解决问题。 P328 (8) Here are four messages on Alan Marshall’s answerphone.

Its old meaning is used to express a temperature that is a little bit cold. As the world has changed, the word has had many different meanings. “Cool” can be used to express feelings of interest in almost anything. When you see a famous car in the street, maybe you will say, “It’s cool.” You may think, “He’s so cool,” when you see your favourite footballer. We all maximize(扩大) the meaning of “cool”. You can use it instead of many words such as teacher asked her students to write about the waterfall they had visited. On one student’s paper was just the one sentence, “It’s so cool.” Maybe he thought it was the best way to show that he saw and felt. 71 But the story also shows a scarcity(不足) of words. Without “cool”, some people have no words to show the same meaning. So it is quite important to keep some credibility(可信性). Can you think of many other words that make your life as colorful as the word “cool”? I can, and I think they are 篇六:初中英语阅读300篇 Buried Treasure!

Anna Old English Table Rules Years ago, in England, the children of lords and ladies were brought up by servants in their own part of the house or castle. They only saw their parents at dinner time. There were many rules about how to behave at meal times. Everyone had his or her own knife, which was used for cutting food, spoons were setout on the table. Forks hadn’t 76 been invented, so fingers were used to take food from dishes on the table. We all know fingers were invented before forks! These are some of the rules: ? Don’t clean your knife on the tablecloth. ? Don’t carve the table with your knife. ? Don’t spread the butter with your thumb. ? Don’t drink out of the bowl. Use a spoon. ? Wipe your spoon clean and take care it isn’t stolen. ? Keep your hands from dirtying the tablecloth, and don’t blow your nose on it. ? Don’t put unwanted food back in the dish. ? Don’t throw any bones on the floor. ? Don’t blow crumbs out of your mouth. ? Don’t grin, shout, or stuff your jaws with food. True or False: 1. In old England, children were taught table manner by their parents. 2. Nowadays, we would find some of these rules still very popular. 3. People used their fingers because they didn’t have forks. 4. Put chicken bones on your plate. 77 5. The tablecloth was for wiping hands 3 Out of school There are many things we need to know that we do not learn at school. For example, if we want to use our allowance wisely, we need to shop carefully. We need know how to compare the prices of things in different shops. We need to be able to compare quality of different designer names. We need to know how to make sensible choices when we shop. Knowing how to make such choices is a “life skill”, and we need these skills if we are to lead useful and happy lives. Some of these choices are small. For example, will I take an apple for lunch or a pear? Will I get the bus to school today or will I walk? Will I wear the red T-shirt or the blue one to the movies? Other choices are more important. For example, will I eat healthy food for lunch or will I eat junk food because it is tastier? Will I work hard in all my classes or will I only work hard in the classes which I enjoy? We make decisions like this every day. Making the wrong choices can result in unhappiness. We have to realize that the choices we make can affect the rest of our lives. Just as importantly, our choices can also affect 78 other people. The next time you decide to waste time in class, play a joke on someone or talk loudly at the movies, consider this: Who else does my choice affect? Choose the best answer 1.

He sold jewellery, watches, clocks and so on. All went well some years, and then a thief stole a lot of jewellery from his shop twice in one month at night. Three weeks passed, yet the police still didn't catch the thief. So Billy decided to try to do something about it himself. He bought a good camera and fixed it up in his shop and put some cheap jewellery in front of it for the thief, so that it could take a photo of anyone who stole the jewellery. A few nights later the thief came, but he did not touch any of the cheap jewellery that Billy had put out for him.

She came to a bank and saw a car near the door. A man got out of it and went into the bank. She looked into the car. The keys were still in the lock. The old woman took the keys and followed the man into the bank. In the bank, the man took a gun out of his pocket and said to the clerk, “Give me all the money!” but the old woman didn't see this. She went to the man, put the keys in his hand and said, “Young man, you’re foolish!” never leave your keys in your car.

We made some sandwiches to take with us for lunch. We left quite early and there was not too much traffic at that time. After about two hours we came to a nice place. It was a very 83 hot day and the water was very clear. After a swim we had lunch in the cool shade under the trees. Then we went for a walk. We saw some beautiful birds and butterflies. After walking for about an hour we returned to our car and began to drive home. We got home very late and we were tired. But we enjoyed ourselves very much.

When he sees an old woman on the 84 side of the road, he stops his car and says to the old woman, “I want to go to the Sun Hotel. Do you know where it is?” “Yes,” the old woman answers, “I will show you the way.” She gets into Mr. Black’s car, and he drivers about twelve miles.

It does not have the same meaning as our “No”. If someone wants to visit India, he should know this, or it will give him some trouble. One day, a foreign officer went to India on business. He hired a car and an Indian to driver it. When he told his driver to send him to his office, the driver shook his head at once. The officer repeated his order, and the driver shook his head again. At last, the officer, of course, got angry. “How dare you refuse my order?” he shouted. “Drive me to my office immediately!” The driver answered in a very loud voice, too. “Yes, sir.” But to the officer’s surprise, the driver shook his head at the same time. The car started, and the foreign officer was now too surprised to say a word. He thought about it for a while and then nodded with a smile, “No means Yes here!” 印度人与 86 人说话时总是摇着头。这里没有我们表示“不”的相同含义。 如果有人想去印度，他 应该知道这一点，不然就会给他带来一些麻烦。 有一天，一位外国官员前往印度办理业务。他租了一辆车 和一位印度司机。当他告诉司机送他到办公室时，司机立刻 摇了摇头。这位官员重复了他的命令，司机又摇了摇头。结 果，这 位官员当然生气咯。 “你怎么敢拒绝我的命令,“他喊道。“立刻送我去我的办 公室～“ 司机也用非常响亮的声音回答说:“是的，先生。“ 令这官员惊讶的是，与此同时司机也摇了摇头。汽车开动， 外国官员想了一会儿，然后微 笑着点了点头，现在他很惊讶地说了句话:“在这里' 不’意味着'是’～“ P233 (7) I have always been interested in making things. When I was a child, I enjoyed painting, but I also liked making things out of clay. I won a prize for one of my paintings when I was fourteen. That maybe why I went to art school four years later. But I studied painting at first, not pottery. I like being a potter because I like to work with my hands and 87 feel the clay. I’m happy working by myself and being near my home. I don't like mass-produced things, for they are made by machines and are all the same. I think crafts are very important and crafts people make things cleverly with hands. They make our lives colorful. When I left school, I got some money. I hope to become a full-time craftswoman. This workplace is small, but I wish to move to a larger one next year. 我一直对制作的事情很感兴趣。 当我还是个孩子，我很喜欢绘画，我也喜欢用粘土制作。当 我十四岁时，我因一幅画而赢得了一个奖项。这也许就是为 什么四年后我上了艺术学校。不过，我先学画，而不是陶艺。 我想成为陶艺家，是因为我喜欢用我的双手工作，感觉黏土。 我很高兴工作室我家附近，我独自工作。我不喜欢大量生产 的东西，因为它们是由机器制造，千篇一律。我认为工艺品 是非常重要的，手工艺人用双手巧妙地制作工艺品。他们使 我们的生活丰富多彩。当我离开学校后，我赚了些钱。我希 望成为一名专职手工艺人。这个工作室小了点，明 年我想搬到一个较大的工作室。 P234 (8) Thomas Edison was a great inventor. One day, about one hundred years ago, he stood by a strange-looking machine, he said the words, “Mary had a little lamb.” Then something 88 marvelous happened—the machine talked back. He had invented phonograph. The machine, however, did not work very well. Another famous inventor, Alexander Graham Bell, helped to improve it. People were not sure whether they liked listening to the phonograph. Then a great singer, Emrico Caruso, made some records. Everyone loved them, and the phonograph became popular. Today we can listen to our favorite singers whenever we want to. Thanks to Thomas Edison. 托马斯爱迪生是一位伟大的发明家。大约一百年前，有一 天，他站在一台样子奇特的机器旁边，他对着说话，“玛丽 有只小羊羔。”于是，令人惊异的事发生了，机器“顶嘴”了。 他 发明了留声机。 但是这台机器没能流畅地工作。另一位著名的发明家亚历 山大格雷厄姆贝尔，帮助改进了。人们不知道他们是否喜欢 听留声机。然后，一位伟大的歌手，埃姆利科卡鲁索，取得 了一些记 录。每个人都喜爱他们，留声机开始流行。 今天，每当我们想听，我们就可以听我们最喜欢的歌星。 89 感谢托马斯爱迪生。 P235 (9) Master Sun’s Art of War China has issued a set of four stamps to remember the great book Master Sun’s Art of War. The first stamps were issued this week at Linyi in East China’s Shangdong Province. Master sun was also called Sun Wu. He was a military strategist during the Spring and Autumn period(770BC—476BC). He was a general in the army of the Wu Kingdom. During this period he wrote his great work Master Sun’s Art of War. Master Sun’s Art of War is in 13 parts. It is one of the earliest and the most famous military books in the world. In the past2,500 years, the influence of this book has extended from China to the whole world. The stamps were drawn or designed by Chen Quansheng. He is a young artist. The prices of the four stamps are 20 ,30 ,50 fen and one yuan. They are about him and the 90 stories about him. In 1972, the important ancient copies of the Art of War were found in Linyi. This helps to understand Master Sun’s military art greatly. The Linyi post office received about 10,000 letters asking for the first issues of the stamps. 《孙子兵法》 中国发行了四枚一套的邮票以纪念《孙子兵法》这部巨著。本星期首套邮票在中国东部山 东省的临沂发行了。 孙子也叫孙武。他是在春秋时期(公元前770 -公元前476)的一位军事战略家。他是一位 吴国将军。在此期间，他写出了巨著《孙子兵法》。 《孙子兵法》有13篇。它是世界上最早最著名的军事著作之一。 在过去的2，500年里，这本书的影响力已经从中国扩展到全世界。 这套邮票由陈全生设计。他是一个年轻的艺术家。这四枚邮票的面值分别是20分，30分， 50分和一元。他们对他和对他的故事。 篇八:初中英语阅读 英语阅读能力的培养 91 赵官镇中学 李玉霞 摘要:任何技能的获得，当然包括英语这项语言技能，均来自重复。一种事情重复多了， 便产生了感觉和深刻的把握。在发展英语技能时，也应该遵循重复原则。 一个人的精力不可能总是充沛的，重复做同一件事情就会变得单调，因此就要采取间隔突击强化的方法。英语学习的过程应该是由一个个强化突击阶段所组成的。 正如美国总统林肯所说:一个人必须依据语言、逻辑和简单的常识来决定问题和建立自己的行动 计划 项目进度计划表范例计划下载计划下载计划下载课程教学计划下载 。在学习英语的过程中，你按照常理去做，你就可能成功。你违背了常理，就不可能成功。当然，成功与否还取决于你的努力。 但是很多中国学生对简单的语言往往不屑一顾，只求理解而不去尝试着使用自己学到的东西。中国学生在学英语中最喜欢追求一个字--难。尽管学了很多难的东西，却不会用。而事实上，简单的东西如能灵活、准确地使用才是真正重要的。比如从口语来说，人们并不是看一个人会说多么难的单词，关键在于看他能否熟练运用最简单的单词、句型、语法来表达情感、思想。 的。 学会容易的东西，并把容易的东西融会贯通地加以运用才 92 是英语学习的关键所在， 英语一套简易读物分六级，每一级有五六本，一本只有100页左右，不超过一个星期就可以读完一个级的读物。你在读的过程中，不要太多拘泥于语法，可以偶尔体会一下语法的作用，但主要精力放在理解小说的主题上。要注意，我们是在通过英语获取信息，了解文化、生活，吸收新的思想。你要读进去，才能读得快。学会容易的东西，并把容易的东西融会贯通地加以运用才是英语学习的关键所在不要研究语言，要树立数量第一的观念，尽量快速地读。这样一来，坚持读三四个月，英语的阅读水平就会迅速提高。 利用课堂45分钟的有效教学时间。 首先我们应该立足于课本，充分利用 教材 民兵爆破地雷教材pdf初中剪纸校本课程教材衍纸校本课程教材排球校本教材中国舞蹈家协会第四版四级教材 中的课文进行阅读训练，每一个单元都安排三篇阅读文章，有精读的，也有泛读的;而且每篇文章都有其侧重点。因此我们在教学 中把精读与泛读要紧密地只有精读与结合起来，给学生指定一定的篇章让他们自主阅读，强调独立阅读课文的重要性旨在培养他们的阅读能力和技能。刚开始训练时，每课的文章不宜太长，让学生用二分钟的时间泛读，然后用五分钟细读，再用三分钟快读，通过三次的阅读，学生从文章中得到的信息一次比一次更准确，然后解答所给的问题。所给的问题要简单些，让学生很快地找出来。在学生有了一定的基础后，加大文章的容量，设置比较难的问题，以提高学生的阅 93 读能力。 当然，泛读相互结合，才是真正意义上的阅读。它们是相辅相成，互为补充的。有效地借助母语知识理解英语。我们认为学英语既要尽可能地说英语、读英语，但是在必要的时候，可以借助母语。 第十，尝试阅读英语故事及其他英语课外读物。英语课外读物是英语学习的重要补充，大量阅读从很多方面都有利于我们学习，包括词汇的学习、语法的学习，更重要的是阅读技能的学习。 中学英语教学中，阅读教学已经占主导地位，而关系到阅读教学质量，最为讲究的首推 提问设计。课堂 提问，是一种教师提出问题，引导学生运用已经学过的知识经验，回答教师提出的问题，从而获得新知识的方 法，是课堂教学使用率最高的一种教学手段。教师提 问设计的得体、精巧，能把学生引入“问题情境”，激发 学生探索知识和阅读的欲望，培养他们表达的兴趣和习惯，引导他们积极思考，促使他们掌握知识发展智力; 能充分地激发学生的思维活动，使学生通过独立思考获取知识，积极探索，智力活动的积极性得到充分调动， 对发展学生的英语语言表达能力能起到极大作用。在英语阅读教学的问题设计中，教师要注意提问的质量;提 的问题要明确具体，要 94 有启发性，难易适度，能为学生所理解，符合学生的水平，使学生有思路可循，而不能 含糊不清，模棱两可;提问要有训练思维能力的价值，学生不动脑是回答不下来的，但经过努力，是一定能答 出来的;提问对象要普遍，对不同性质不同程度的问题要适当地让不同程度的学生回答;问题与问题之间，在 内部联系上要相互衔接，首尾相连，层层深入;问题设计要有计划性，要全面安排提问内容，不能信口开河。 据此，教师在问题设计时，要精心组织，甚至对某一个问题学生可能有的几种回答;对于学生这种或那种回答 怎么引导，怎么分析，怎么有意识训练学生能力等，都要在事先有所估计，有所考虑。 目前，英语阅读教学中的课堂提问，普遍存在“三多三少”的现状，即一问一答多，独立思考少;尖子生 回答多，中下游学生回答少;直接给答案多，分析过程少。笔者根据自己的英语教学实践，就提问设计谈几点看法。 一、提问要诱发学生兴趣，忌直贵曲。如果我们教师在设计问题时过于浅显，或过于简单、容易，学生就 可以几乎不动脑筋回答，一哄而上或脱口而出，这只是一种很表面化的“积极”与“热闹”，实际上学生思维 仍停留在低级、单一的水平，不利于学生发散性思维的发展。因此，我们设计问题应该在学生现有逻辑思维的 水准下，换换角度，换换说法，凡问必曲，培养学生兴趣，发展学生智力，努力学好英 95 语。很明显，这几个问题的设计，一般地说太直太浅，学生答题时几乎可以不加思考地直接回答，而不须动什 么脑子作艰苦的探求。相比而言，这种提问设计不利于学生学习兴趣的培养，不利于学生思维(尤其是发散性 思维)能力的培养。 二、提问设计要设阶梯，层层递进，逐级攀登，以完成教学任务。对于教学中的一些重难点，我们尽量设 计一些铺垫性的问题，依据学生水平，想方设法化难为易，化繁为简，由近及远，一环扣一环，逐步解决大问 题，从心理学和教育学角度看，这是符合学生认知规律的。 三、提问设计应有“度”。我们认为这个“度”必须是广义的，它应该包括提问设计的难度、深度(铺垫 性设问)、亮度(讲究感情色彩，抓住学生原有知识经验和新接受信息不适应而产生的心理失衡，提出问题， 打动学生的心)、跨度(抓住教材重点、难点，问得集中，施行浓缩法，加大问题容量)、角度、精度、密度 等，尤其是提问设计中的难易度的把握。提问有一定难度，才能激发学生求知欲，调动学生注意力，刺激学生 思维，让学生体会到智力角逐的乐趣。当然要注意照顾到大多数学生的知识、智力水平。这要求我们教师设计 问题时，要看准，要有眼光，要恰到好处。我们不能凭借主观想象，想当然，推已及人，胸中无数，而是要通 过摸底调查，设身处地为学生着想。如果提问太易，学生就会 96 不以为然，失去提问价值，教师也会失去与学生 沟通的机会，浪费教学时间;如果提问太难，学生不敢答，不能答，就会损伤学生思维的积极性，影响学生的 学习兴趣和信心。当然，提问的难易适度还有两个标准:?问题本身;?具体学生的素质。倘若教师在设计问 题时又能够想到这两点，教学双方必然会呈现如鱼得水般的景象。比如教学《Thomas Edison》一课，我们可根 据学生预习情况，从学生阅读理解能力的实际出发，利用有关提示，引导开启学生求异思维，就一定能取得好 的教学效果。 四、提问设计要“巧”。在英语阅读教学的提问设计中，教师对题型的研究，显得十分重要。因为从纵向 看，它必须考虑因课堂教学流程中各个时机、环节的不同而不同;从横向看，则要依据教材内容和学生实际有 所区别。如此纵横交织，就必须用多种提问方式来 体现不同的教学功能，才能适应提问的运行机制。这就要求 教师匠心独运，在“巧”字上下功夫。一般地说，?要采用多种提问方式，如投石激浪式、选择比较式、填充 补续式、追踪探因式、检查整理式等。?要讲究操作调控方式。要注意提问的时机、提问的对象、提问的方式 、答问的 评价 LEC评价法下载LEC评价法下载评价量规免费下载学院评价表文档下载学院评价表文档下载 等。?要防止提问可能产生的负面影响。提问忌深、忌偏、忌全、忌浅、忌滥。?要讲究提问的 逻辑:问题要合理，问域要适度，概念要清楚，表达要明确，答案要未知。在英 97 语教学中，提问设计的“巧” ，越来越显出其重要作用，既能节省教学时间，又能提高教学质量，此法必须持之以恒。。 五、提问要注意对学生回答的处理。有丰富课堂教学经验的教师，对于学生回答，不会不作出处理，不会 不作出恰当的评价，这个教学环节不能省，不能松。当教师自己评价学生的回答时，必须肯定学生什么地方回 答得好，回答得正确，什么地方回答得不正确，或不够正确，并指出原因。这样做，就能使学生对掌握的知识 是非分明，界限清楚，思维能力得到有效培养，而切忌对学生的回答作含糊不清、模棱两可的评价，甚至不作 评价。不少青年教师恰恰忽略了这一点，应引起足够重视，这个教学环节疏忽不得。 一般地说，教师应向全班学生提出问题，待学生略作思考后，指名学生个别回答。学生答题后，教师应再 恰当地指名其他学生，引导他们对这一学生的回答进行补充、评价。这样做，有利于把全班学生的注意力集中 到教师所提出的问题上来。如果原来指名的学生，仍然不能订正、补充前一学生的回答，教师可再另换一个角 度提出启发性的问题，并要求其他学生注意听取别人的发言，启发学生深入思考，引导学生作答，教师作概括 、小结性的评价，以求得问题较全面、较透彻的解决。这样做，才能加强学生对知识记忆的刺激，加深记忆印 迹，学得扎实、全面。 英语阅读教学是一个极为复杂的多因子动态结构，其中任 98 何一个环节，都关系到阅读教学的整体质量，必 须充分重 视。提问设计，作为阅读教学的一个聚焦点，更应作全面的 理论研究和反复的实践探索。英语阅读教 学中的提问设计 是否恰当，是否真正发挥其重要作用，关键是教师必须做到 既备课又备人，设计什么问题，层 次深浅的安排，对“度” 的把握，对“巧”的研究等等，都要在深入教材和了解学生的 基础上来考虑。只有深 入钻研教材，了解学生，才能对提 问的角度、引导的方法、预期的效果等做到胸中有数，作出 合乎科学的设计 ，而不是随心所欲，任意提问。以优化提 问设计为切入点，改革英语阅读教学，是英语教学中的一个 重要的研 究课题。本文执一隅之见，求教于大方之家。 篇九:9A U3提高卷答案 学英语随堂反馈提高卷 Test for Unit 3 of 9A 一、1-5 BCADB 6-10 ACBCC11-15 CBDBD 二、1-5 BBDCA 6-10 BCDDC 三、1-5 CDABC 四、1. fortieth 2. worried 3. madder 4. correctly5. valuable 五、1.
